La Línea en Función del Plano 1948

Raul Lozza made this print, “La Línea en Función del Plano,” sometime in the 20th century using an unknown medium on paper. I'm looking at this soft lavender backdrop with visible brushstrokes which kind of makes it feel like it's breathing. Then, these sharp, angular shapes – triangles, mostly – pierce through the calm. A purple one overlaps a burgundy one. I imagine Lozza shuffling around the studio, maybe listening to some tango, really feeling the push and pull of geometry. The artist is probably asking themselves, “How can a line define space? How can color shift perception?" The lines feel very intentional. It makes me think about the artist's overall exploration of geometric abstraction. It's like he’s having a conversation with the Bauhaus guys, but with a Latin American twist. It's a dance between control and freedom. And it leaves you wondering: what other secrets are hidden within these planes?
